🍸 Always great to raise a glass, or three, with Crystal Garrett
🥦 As we dive into summer entertaining, the farmers’ markets are overflowing with fresh fruit and vegetables, and you may be looking for some wines to pair with these local treasures.
🍋 We’re starting with something coastal and refreshing—Jost’s Blue Latitude from Nova Scotia.
🌊 It’s a breezy white blend with green apple, lime zest, and a splash of ocean minerality.
🧀 Try it with a salad of sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, basil, and goat cheese.
🍾 Folonari Prosecco, a sparkling wine from Italy, is perfect for patio sipping and entertaining.
🍑 It has aromas of white peach, citrus blossom, and fresh, fruity bubbles.
🥓 Try it with fresh peach slices wrapped in prosciutto or a platter of sliced nectarines, cucumber ribbons, and burrata cheese.
🏆 Tidal Bay is Nova Scotia’s signature wine, and this one from 1365 Church Street Winery is a benchmark example.
🌸 It’s vibrant and aromatic with notes of citrus peel, green herbs, and white flowers.
🥒 Serve it with zucchini fritters, a cucumber-dill salad, or herbed chèvre on rye crackers.
🍇 We have this delightful Villa Sparina Gavi di Gavi made from Cortese grapes grown in the northern region of Piedmont so it’s clean and fresh.
✨ It has lovely notes of lime and lemon zest.
🌿 This wine sings with a classic Caprese salad made with heirloom tomatoes, basil, and bocconcini.
🍒 The Lamole di Lamole Maggiolo Blue Label Chianti Classico is a bold and structured red with layers of ripe plum, black cherry, violet, and a whisper of Tuscan herbs.
🥧 It’s gorgeous with grilled eggplant stacks layered with ricotta and roasted red peppers, or a rustic tomato galette.
